    Abstract: A permanent magnet electric motor includes a shaft extending along a longitudinal axis and a rotor mounted on the shaft. The rotor is rotatable concomitantly with the shaft about the longitudinal axis, the rotor defines an innermost rotor edge. The innermost rotor edge is sized to receive the shaft. The permanent magnet electric motor further includes a stator. The shaft defines a jacket configured to receive a coolant. The jacket is disposed about the longitudinal axis. The jacket is elongated in a first direction. The first direction is parallel to the longitudinal axis. The rotor defines a plurality of longitudinal channels. Each of the plurality of longitudinal channel is elongated along the first direction, and each of the plurality of longitudinal channels is in fluid communication with the jacket to allow fluid flow between the jacket and the plurality of the longitudinal channels.

    Abstract: An electric propulsion motor system includes a rotary electric propulsion motor that has a stator and a rotor. An air gap is present between the stator and rotor. A fluid circulation system provides pressurized liquid and gas, which is directed through fluid passages in the stator and/or rotor and into the air gap to establish a mixture of pressurized liquid and pressurized gas therein. The pressurized gas dilutes the mixture and pushes the pressurized liquid and pressurized gas against the stator and rotor, forcing it to exit the air gap at the opposite ends of the motor leaving the air gap free of accumulated liquid.
